The Open Gov Hub is a non profit co-working community based in Washington, D.C., and serves as a collaborative space for over 90 organizations. Most of these organizations are nonprofits that promote transparency, accountability, and civic engagement globally. The Hub, spanning 20,000 square feet, provides a physical home for about 150 individuals who work on open government reforms through various mediums, including technology, media, research, and advocacy.

Founded in 2012, Open Gov Hub was created to foster collaboration between diverse sectors, enabling organizations to work more effectively toward improving governance and civic participation. It aims to break down traditional silos, encouraging cooperation across disciplines such as research, technology, and journalism.
